Recipes Side Dish Vegetables Green Beans Green Bean Fries 4.4 (174) 132 Reviews 19 Photos These green bean fries are both a tasty alternative to regular french fries and a way to get in your veggies! I make them by the truckload and freeze them. My husband hates green beans but gobbles these up. Serve them with ranch dressing or another favorite dipping sauce.

Combine green beans and water in a saucepan. Cover and bring to a boil. Cook until the beans are bright green, about 4 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl. Cover with cold water and set aside. In one bowl, whisk egg and milk together. In a separate bowl, mix together bread crumbs, chili powder, garlic powder, and onion powder. Drain green beans and toss with flour to coat, shaking off the excess. Dip beans into egg mixture and then into bread crumbs, coating thoroughly. Fry beans in batches so they are not touching. Cook until golden brown and crispy, about 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Tips To cut down on oil in the beans, I only fry for 1 minute and then put them in a dry frying pan to finish crisping up, it takes longer but it makes them a little less oily.
